Art Against Extinction

Art Against Extinction

Sustainable Creativity, DIY Economies, and Fighting Corporate Control with Ethan Minsker

What responsibility do artists have in an era of climate crisis, corporate consolidation, and cultural disposability?

In Episode Ten of The Bigfoot Manifesto, host Dave Pederson speaks with artist, writer, filmmaker, and cultural organizer Ethan Minsker about sustainable art practices, DIY publishing, and resisting corporate control through community-driven creativity. Minsker's work spans books, zines, film, installations, and nonprofit arts organizing—and challenges the idea that art must be permanent to be meaningful.

This episode explores:

  • Sustainable and biodegradable art practices

  • Why artistic permanence is a myth in a finite world

  • DIY economies, zines, and independent publishing

  • Art as resistance to corporate and extractive systems

  • Creating work that can safely degrade rather than pollute

A conversation about art, ecology, labor, and why making things still matters—even when nothing lasts forever.
